a) Define [K], {U} and {f} (in terms of the element stiffnesses,unknown nodaldisplacements, and the applied force) for the nodal equilibriumequationsexpressed in the standard matrix form:{f} = [K] {U}
b) Define the checks that you can make on the stiffness matrix[K]:Check 1)_________________________________________Check 2)_________________________________________Check 3)_________________________________________
c) Does your stiffness matrix [K] pass the above tests? Explainand circle youranswersCheck 1): YES/NO __________________________________Check 2): YES/NO __________________________________Check 3): YES/NO __________________________________
